Love Match: Taurus and Scorpio

The Love Trap

By Molly Hall, About.com

Fixed Earth and Fixed Water

Being opposites, these two often attract, and when handled with care, this relationship has potential. Scorpio's magnetic aura is captivating to Taurus, who sees a prize worth possessing. Taurus appeals to Scorpio's desire for a settled, loyal mate. Their big shared vice of being possessive can be the superglue that holds them in place. They know how to reassure the insecurities, and even welcome a smidge of jealousy as a sign the other is truly enmeshed. Scorpio has intuitive powers and Taurus is master of the 3-D physical world -- as a team they can experiment in bringing visions into form.

The Scorpio-Taurus works because they've met their match in the other. When Scorpio gives the evil eye, Taurus doesn't back down. Both can be stubborn and "fixed" in their stance, but in their refusal to yield, a strong bond is formed across that divide. Things go wrong when neither is willing to compromise, and the arguments grow more fierce and entrenched. It works well when there's a common goal, and they can become immersed into challenging feats, projects, collaborations together. In the sack, they're passionate and deep, Scorpio emotionally and Taurus sensually. As long as the personal barricades never get too high, this is a powerhouse duo that can last a lifetime.
